We're entering the last phase of the year.  You may have been feeling like the solid ground and plans you've made in the past have been turning.  There is a global shift in conscious awareness.  At times life can seem like you're walking no longer on solid ground but on ever changing liquid. 

As we move towards the end of 2012 and what many have believed to be the end of the Mayan Calendar you maybe noticing an intense energy in other people and yourself. It seems to me we're moving into the last phases of the old  structures of society and in ourselves.  A push to change and growth.

Some have been experiencing a lack of direction and or structure to their lives, businesses, relationships.  Some are experiencing pain either emotional or physical or both as old feelings come to the surface to be released.  Keep the faith in life, for ''this too shall pass'' (Saying originating from Indian Teachers).  Find ways to think more positively and optimistically.  More tips here, just click

Here are some more solid tips from Don Miguel Ruiz's code for life.  These are strong aspirations to live by as much as possible.

Be impeccable with your word.   Speak with integrity.   Say only what you mean.  Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others.  Use the power of your word in the direction of truth AND love. 

My interpretation, if you are hurting due to change or this shift, always connect with the Law of compassion and the monad of Love when speaking. Making sure you do not speak to harm another.

Don't take anything personally.  Nothing otherrs do is because of you.  What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream.   When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering. 

My interpretation:  This is a hard truth to follow, but it's worth reminding yourself of it.  Many are caught in illusions of their 'story' and will repeat or try to  enforce their story.   Remember you co create.  That doesn't mean you are responsible FOR what others do or say, it can mean you are attracting it due to your beliefs.  Solution, stop telling 'your story' to yourself or others.  Find a path to heal your story and programmes of beliefs.

Don't make assumptions.  Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want.  Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama.  With just this code, you can completely transform your life

Always do your best.  Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to un well or stressed.  Under any circumstance, simply do your best and you will avoid self-judgment, self abuse and regret.

My interpretation.   Stop judging yourself for mistakes, find a way to correct them. Understand that if someone seems willfully intent on causing you harm, they are stuck in their 'story' of justification.  Understand people don't always do their best, but they do  what they are capable of at that time.

Do not mistake these tips to mean you should be devoid of emotion. Rather use the tips to help with your feelings and help others.  More love, more abundance

How to change beliefs.
By Alexandra P. Brown
 

I started my day surfing on face book, as you do!  Came across a link to an  interview of a doctor claiming wheat makes you fat.   Bad news for vegetarians. 
Vegetarians tend to consume a larger amount of wheat daily than meat
eaters.

 That’s right, eat wheat daily  and you have a high chance of consuming over 440 extra calories a day, 365 days a year.

 According to Cardiologist William Davis, modern wheat is nothing like the food our grandparents ate and remained trim on.

 Modern day bread is made from an 18 inch plant created in the 60’s and 70’s by genetic research.

 I can imagine some saying they eat only organic and whole grain wheat.   This is like smoking filtered cigarettes and saying its better than unfiltered, not something to be advocated as a daily consumption.    Even the organic whole grain brown wheat breads are filled with an opiate that is found in white processed bread.  

There’s an added protein in wheat, not gluten but gliadin.  Gliadin binds into the opiate receptors in your brain and in most people increases appetite.    This opiate can also be the reason why some over eat bread in order to calm or sooth their nerves, that’s my theory.  
 

For those of you thinking oh, I’ll replace wheat with crisps, think again!  Most crisp manufacturers include wheat in their mix.  On a recent visit to my local supermarket, I found it hard to find any product without wheat and sugar in it, including products of meats, mayonnaise, tomato paste, dried spices and herbs of all things!

 Davis advocates replacing wheat with ‘real foods’ such as avocados, olives, olive oil, meat and vegetables which are least likely
to have been changed by agribusiness.   Oh there goes my ryvita!
Just read the labels carefully next time you shop and see if you can buy your weekly shopping without added sugars, fructose, dextrose and wheat.
